Flash fiction is generally recognized as being fiction under a thousand words - the perfect length for a coffee break - but despite its appeal as a quick read, it is not simplistic. Quite the opposite; it can and should be one of the most demanding literary forms, with a need for perfectly crafted prose, a complete story arc in a tight space, and an immediately engaging hook. The Best of Every Day Fiction 2008 brings together one hundred flash fiction pieces selected from Every Day Fiction's first year of publication. These stories cross boundaries of genre and geography, with tastes of science fiction, humour, romance, fantasy, horror, and surrealism alongside the more traditional literary pieces, from authors writing in Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Finland, India, Israel, Nigeria, the United Kingdom and the United States.

With Every Day Fiction, there's always something for everyone. This is the "Best of" collection, which covers the highlights of EDF's first year of fiction. Personal favorites include "The Surrender," "For Cabbages and Ale," "Monochrome," "The Philosopher in the Dark," and "Desert Island Solitaire." These and many more gems come together to make this a volume highly worth checking out.

Can't review it, because I have some stories in it. Some of my friends do, too. But I do enjoy a lot of the work in here.
